    I m too much found of watching reality shows specially American Idol and X factor are my most favorite singign competition. I love to watch these ones every year. Some time I feel that these shows are already scripted, like emotional blackmailing of contestant that he is the only earning person of house, fight between judges, demand of a song too many times and many more things like this. What do you think that these shows are already scripted or not..........................

    Certain parts of reality tv is scripted. Many of the snide comments made by judges aren't thought up on the spot, and a lot of people are put together just because it would be interesting. Take that wife swap show. If the two families weren't polar opposites, there wouldn't be much of a show would there?
